Cosmetic Composition

The cosmetic composition of the present invention is a cosmetic composition containing:

-   -   (A) a silicone film-forming agent, and     -   (B) an organopolysiloxane having a polyalkylene oxide moiety and         a cationic group other than the component (A), wherein:     -   the content of water is 50% by mass or less.

Having the above constitution, the cosmetic composition of the present invention is, when applied to a keratin substance such as skin or hair in a dry state and especially when used without rinsing away with water, able to impart a smooth feel in a dry state or in rinsing, and is, even after rinsing, able to be excellent in sustainability of these effects. In addition, when the cosmetic composition is used as a hair dye composition, it can impart the above-mentioned effects to hair and secure good color consistency with little fading by shampooing.

Regarding the treatment compositions described in Patent Literatures 1 and 2, the publications say that the functionalized silicone polymer adheres to hair with durability, but the functionalized silicone polymer is very sticky and has a problem in that a good feel is difficult to obtain.

Further, these treatment compositions are assumed to be for so-called rinse-off use in which they are rinsed away with water after applied to hair or fibers. Therefore, in the case where the treatment compositions are used like leave-on treatment agents and are dried as such without rinsing away, a sticker feel is given that could not be able to accept for practical use.

An object of the present invention is to provide a cosmetic composition which is, when applied to a keratin substance such as skin or hair in a dry state and especially when used without rinsing away with water, able to impart a smooth feel in a dry state or in rinsing, and is, even after rinsing, able to be excellent in sustainability of these effects.

The present inventors have found that a cosmetic composition containing a silicone film-forming agent, and an organopolysiloxane having a polyalkylene oxide moiety and a cationic group other than the component (A), in which the content of water is a predetermined amount or less, can solve the above-mentioned problems, and have completed the present invention.

According to the present invention, there can be provided a cosmetic composition which is, when applied to a keratin substance such as skin or hair in a dry state and especially when used without rinsing away with water, able to impart a smooth feel in a dry state or in rinsing, and is, even after rinsing, able to be excellent in sustainability of these effects. In addition, when the cosmetic composition is used as a hair dye composition, it can impart the above-mentioned effects to hair and secure good color consistency with little fading by shampooing.

The reason why the cosmetic composition of the present invention exhibits the above-mentioned effect is, though not clear, presumed as follows.

The cosmetic composition containing the component (A) and the component (B) is, when applied to the surface of a keratin substance, able to form a hydrophobic film.

The component (B) has polyalkylene oxide moiety and a cationic group and is therefore considered to have high adsorbability to a keratin substance such as skin or hair to be eccentrically located on the side of the keratin substance to thereby firmly adsorb the formed film to the surface of the keratin substance to exhibit the film peeling preventing effect.

On the other hand, the component (A) is a hydrophobic film forming agent and, is considered to maintain the strength and the durability of the entire film formed and, when combined with the component (B), to be excellent in the adhesiveness to a keratin substance and in the followability to the shape change and the movement of a keratin substance to thereby exhibit an effect of imparting a smooth feel. In addition, in the case where a functional powder to be mentioned below is incorporated in the cosmetic composition, it is considered that the component (A) can keep the functional powder in the film to thereby enhance various functions and the sustainability thereof of the powder.

Further, the water content in the cosmetic composition is 50% by mass or less, and therefore no precipitate may form with time, and the drying speed is high, and even in leave-on use without rinsing away with water, the composition can still impart a smooth feel.

Consequently, for example, in the case where the cosmetic composition is a hair cosmetic composition, and even when applied to hair in a dry state like an leave-on treatment agent and left as such without rinsing away with water, the composition is considered to be still able to impart a smooth feel to the hair in a dry state and in rinsing, and in addition, even after rinsing, these effects can sustain well. Also in the case where the cosmetic composition is a hair dye composition such as a temporary hair dye composition or a semipermanent hair dye composition, it is considered that the composition can impart the above-mentioned effect to hair owing to the synergistic effect of the component (A) and the component (B), and can improve color consistency with little fading by shampooing.

The mechanism of the action of the present invention is not limited to the above.

Components contained in the cosmetic composition of the present invention are described below.
